That’s because the parallelization in the STL is encapsulated. In Haskell and Rust it’s explicit, it’s not just about adding a parameter to an existing function, it’s a general mechanism.

Rayon literally works on iterators just like the C++ algorithm library.

Well in that case neither of them is really comparable to what Haskell can do here. But Rust’s capabilities go far beyond Rayon as I’m sure you know.
